1049 You Can’t Afford to Hire Me (2)

“I can,” Bai Qianqian said. “Since I’m here, it means I can represent the qingqiu race. Since you know my name, the bai ze race should have told you my identity.”

Zhou Shu’s expression didn’t change. The bai ze race, the griffin race, and Feng Wu had never told him anything related to Bai Qianqian.

How could he know her identity?

The Bai Qianqian he knew was Bai Qianqian from countless years later. At the time, the qingqiu race had long disappeared from the world!

“Just say what you have to say. Don’t waste my time,” Zhou Shu said coldly.

Bai Qianqian was stunned for a moment before continuing seriously, “You’re straightforward. In that case, I won’t beat around the bush.

“Our qingqiu race would like to ask you to forge a connate divine weapon for us.”

“Forge a connate divine weapon for you?” Zhou Shu said. “If I remember correctly, your qingqiu race rejected Feng Wu’s proposal to trade for connate divine weapons, right?”

“That’s right! I wanted to sell you connate divine weapons before, but you rejected me!” Feng Wu said loudly.

Bai Qianqian glanced at Feng Wu. “Our qingqiu race naturally won’t want the inferior connate divine weapons sold by the griffin race.

“The connate divine weapon our qingqiu race needs is unique and unparalleled.

“As long as you can help us forge it, we can agree to any condition.”

A blush flashed across Bai Qianqian’s pretty face. “Our qingqiu race has many beauties. Even if you want a concubine, you can choose one from our race.”

Zhou Shu looked at Bai Qianqian with a faint smile. “Who gave your qingqiu race the confidence to think that you can instruct me to do things?”

Bai Qianqian was slightly stunned. “That’s not what I meant. We just want to ask for your help. We are willing to pay the price.”

“You can’t afford to hire me.” Zhou Shu flicked his sleeves and said coldly, “If there’s nothing else, please leave. Feng Wu, send the guest out!

“By the way, let me remind you. Next time, don’t barge into my Lingxiao Treasure Palace. Otherwise, my sword won’t recognize you.”

The Celestial Thearch Sword appeared out of thin air, and a towering sword qi instantly locked onto Bai Qianqian.

Bai Qianqian’s pretty face instantly turned pale. For a moment, she even felt her soul being torn to pieces by the sword qi, and she was drenched in sweat.

“You didn’t even say how much it will cost. Why do you think our qingqiu race can’t afford it?” Bai Qianqian gritted her teeth to prevent anyone from seeing her trembling.

Although she had expected all kinds of situations to happen, when she really faced Zhou Shu, she realized how powerful he was.

Facing Zhou Shu, she felt powerless.

“Your courage is commendable, but your ability is a little lacking,” Zhou Shu said indifferently. The Bai Qianqian in the future was much stronger than the Bai Qianqian in front of him.

But after thinking about it, it made sense. Apart from the giant spirit race, none of these ancient races cultivated the Martial Dao.

Bai Qianqian was able to hide herself previously because of her natural instincts.

This Bai Qianqian, who had never cultivated before, was naturally much weaker than the Bai Qianqian who had a Grotto-Heaven realm cultivation in the future.

“You’re not giving up, are you? On account that your name is Bai Qianqian, I’ll give you a chance,” Zhou Shu said indifferently. “Tell me. What can your qingqiu race offer?

“If you have something that can impress me, I don’t mind helping you forge a connate divine weapon.”

Feng Wu pursed his lips as he listened. He knew very well how high Zhou Shu’s standards were. No matter how many forging materials he brought back, he had never seen his surprised expression.

The qingqiu race wasn’t a rich race. Unless the opportunity was real, what could they offer to impress Zhou Shu?

Bai Qianqian bit her lip and stared at Zhou Shu with her watery eyes. After a long time, she said, “Our qingqiu race has eight thousand clansmen who can submit to the giant spirit race—”

“You have no other choice, unless you want your race to be exterminated,” Zhou Shu interrupted her coldly. “The giant spirit race will unify the world, and no one can stop them. If this is your bargaining chip, you can leave.”

Bai Qianqian bit her lip. If looks could kill, her gaze would probably have already pierced several holes in Zhou Shu’s body.

But she had a favor to ask of him. No matter how overboard he was, she had to endure it!

Bai Qianqian gritted her teeth. “Our qingqiu race has 1,364 ancestral treasures. We can give them all to you.”

Feng Wu looked surprised. The qingqiu race is using everything they have. This is probably their entire race’s collection over the years.

Feng Wu was from an ancient race, so he naturally understood the weight of Bai Qianqian’s words.

Before Zhou Shu appeared, the ancient races didn’t know anything about forging materials. Their treasures were all heavenly treasures that could increase strength.

These were all good items that could only be chanced upon by luck.

It had to be known that ancient races didn’t have the Martial Dao. The heavenly treasures that could increase strength could either directly increase their physical strength or mental strength.

In short, these were all genuine good treasures.

Although Zhou Shu didn’t know the exact situation, he could more or less understand.

But he didn’t take it to heart. There were only a thousand or so treasures. They were nothing to him.

Zhou Shu was the best forger in the world. How could it be so easy to ask him to customize a connate divine weapon?

In the future, people would be ashamed to ask for a weapon without a million kilograms of forging materials!

Of course, most of the time, Zhou Shu forged connate divine weapons for free. He was mainly looking for workers.

But this didn’t mean that just anyone could ask him to help. Unless he was willing to customize a divine weapon for someone, what he forged was what people got.

“Is that all?” Zhou Shu said casually.

Bai Qianqian was a little speechless. She really wanted to say, ‘Isn’t this enough?’

There were definitely less than five races in the world that could take out a thousand-odd treasures that the qingqiu race had offered!

Was so many treasures not enough?

Bai Qianqian said through gritted teeth, “Or you can tell me what you want. As long as it’s something that exists in this world, our qingqiu race can find it for you!”

“You’re the ones begging me. Why do I need to tell you what I want?” Zhou Shu’s expression was cold.

“If you can’t come up with anything that impresses me, then you can leave.” Zhou Shu waved his hand.

“Wait!” Bai Qianqian’s pretty face flushed red. She wanted to take a step forward, but the sword qi of the Celestial Thearch Sword floating in the air soared, forcing her back out of the threshold again.

Without Zhou Shu’s permission, no one could step into the Lingxiao Treasure Palace safely.

“I have one more thing!” Bai Qianqian said loudly.

“What is it?” Zhou Shu asked casually.

“Me!” Bai Qianqian puffed out her chest.

Her chest was not very spectacular, but it was perfectly shaped. Coupled with her slender waist, it was very eye-catching.

“You?” Zhou Shu’s expression didn’t change as he sized up Bai Qianqian. “I’m not interested.”

“That’s not what I meant!” Bai Qianqian was embarrassed and angry. “What I mean is that there’s something in my body that I’ve obtained. I’m willing to give it to you as long as you’re willing to help my qingqiu race forge a connate divine weapon!”
